As a 26-year resident of Manhattan, NY, my love for the city is only equaled by my desire to escape it. It is within this push and pull of the city that I find my inspiration, hidden beauty in my everyday travels. Being present, with an open mind in a positive manner allows me to appreciate each moment. And maybe, just maybe, that which we cannot change IS the opportunity. It is the opportunity to change our mindset and open a new world of creativity.

My photography shares the transformation of a mundane transit into a traveling studio with an ever-changing canvas. Years of casual curiosity for what I don't want to miss out of an airplane window has organically created this 'project' within a genre of art I call transit photography.

It is my desire to help others realize that the journey can be as fulfilling and inspiring as the destination. We don't have to wait until we stop to smell the proverbial rose. There are always roses around us. I hope these images inspire others to keep their window shades up and looking out for their roses.
